"Argh, how did my life end up like this?!"... more>>

There was once a boy who's well-loved and popular with his peers. His smile could melt an adult's heart and his easygoing and sweet nature attracted a lot of girls who became his admirers.

Little did he know that such a blessed life wouldn't last forever.

Now, he is an ugly, overweight adult, working a job he doesn't like, and leading a life he doesn't want. No women want to be near him, let alone be his girlfriend, or even his wife. He is an oversized gear in a machine that doesn't even welcome him.

When he gets fired from his job, it is the last straw from him. He remembers his life as a kid, and now good and beautiful it was.

"I don't want this. I don't want this anymore!"

"I would be better off dead than having to live like this for a second longer!"

Suicidal, he passes by a flooding river, as there is a storm that day. He immediately thinks of throwing himself there, ending it once and for all.

And he does. But not because he actually has the balls to kill himself via drowning, but because he sees a little girl being carried down the river by the strong current.

In a split second, he decides that it would be better if she lives, even if he has to die in the process.

And he does. He saves her, throwing her into the side of the river. But then his legs, rarely ever used, suddenly cramp. He can do nothing as he is swallowed by the waves.

"Aah, it would be nice if I could be reincarnated into a fantasy world, like in those stories... I can do it all over, and do it better this time around..."

His wish is granted. When he wakes up, he's no longer his old, adult self. He's a baby, living in an entirely new world.

This is his story.

This story would have both happiness and hardships, heartwarming and sad moments, as well as romance that doesn't just end in a kiss. This is a harem story that will end up in a genuine polygamous relationship. It's also an adventure story, though it would stay as a slice-of-life for a good while as MC grows up.

“Family, precious beyond all worth, right?”... more>>

Elizabeth was promised the warmth of a family and sent into another world. What wasn’t promised was that she and her family would not be humans, but Monster Girls. Now, as a Slime Girl, she had to rediscover her place in the world. Fortunately, she had a family to help her go through everything. They would protect her from all harm, and she would do the same.

Because of such, she was the perfect candidate, a Monster Girl, an Otherworlder—everything was waiting for her.

For the longest time, Aideen Fiachna had only one prescient wish; to be the daughter her parents could take pride in.... more>>

The idea was a tall order, especially as her father stood at the head of the Templar order, and her grandfather as the Pope. However, she endeavored to try nonetheless.

Yet fate had a different path in store for her.

For all her efforts, all her best laid plans, were but the broken off crumbs of 'one day'. That day, she was brutally slain by a vile, accursed undead being.

Though, not even restful eternity awaited her in death.

She awakened inside a coffin. Her coffin. During her own funeral wake. Discovering, to her horror, that she had risen. Not somehow resurrected, no, but back in the form of that most hated of beings--the curse of undeath.

What will fate deal her next?

Chapters will range from 1-2.5k words, scheduled for release every day from Monday to Friday.

---------------------------------------

Expect:

-Character progression in a journey of self discovery that spanned the ages

-World building

-Tragedy and Comedy in roughly equal measures

-Occasional action

Do not expect:

-Much in terms of romance

-Politics, barring passing views and mentions

-A lighthearted tale. This story will be a good bit grimmer than my previous one

Any comments, reviews, and criticism will be much appreciated.

Avery wakes up to find himself transported into a nightmarish parallel reality were gender roles/sexual morality are reversed. But that isn't the end of his troubles, oh no. His infamous bad luck with the ladies is acting up again, and it's gotten worse--watch him try to survive the plethora of insane and monstrous women that are after him.... more>>

For the uninformed: reverse sexual morality means that gender roles are reversed--women will be the dominant sex, they pursue and ask men on dates and are physically stronger.

This is a remake of my story "Superhero World of Reversed Gender Roles". I wasn't happy with the previous iteration, and I'll do better this time.

The story will use "expys" in other words characters that are very similar to other characters from popular fictions. Plagarism? What's that, some exotic dish?

Please look at the tags. This story will be dark as fuck, and I don't say that lightly. On a yandere scale of 1 to 10, it is a hardcore 10. <<less

With blessings he received from Gods he started his journey in a whole new world, filled with monster, magic and adventures with waifus.

Do you have a dream? Who hasn’t, right? But do you have what it takes to pursue it?... more>>

Ever since childhood it was my dream to travel the world; experience new things; meet new people. It, however, couldn’t be – my severe illness gradually limited and finally destroyed each of them: from going to the North Pole and seeing Aurora Borealis with my friends; through going camping in neighbouring forest with my family; to just leaving the confines of my room in the hospice and craving simple human touch. My terminal illness slowly took everything from me, giving me only misery. And when I had nothing more to lose – it finally took my life.

That would be the end of a story – but by a sheer cosmic coincidence, a powerful entity picked up my lost soul and gave a body of my dreams: strong, fast, vivacious, beautiful – a perfect body. Then I was left in a completely new world – one brimming with magic, unknown creatures, breathtaking scenery, and various peoples with vivid and fascinating cultures.

I couldn’t realize my dreams in my past life. This time, I can do everything I ever wanted – and fulfil even desires I had no idea I had.

This series has explicit sexual content and is intended for an adult (18+) audience. Be aware of that.

It is nice of the Mandrago family to help Emily develop the skills to kill them all.... more>>

When Emily Coldstone discovers the lightning gem in the smouldering ruins of a crashed airship, her own fate, along with that of those she loves and those she hates, is sealed. Experimenting with the gem’s powers, Emily is awakened as a Mage and finds herself inducted into a secret world of magic by a mysterious entity, who sets her a task that will take her from the slums of her birth to war in the far reaches of space.

For Emily is far more powerful than anyone could have imagined. Not only is Emily a Mage, she is a Mechanic; her talents combining to create a Technomancer, a being capable of building herself an indestructible body, an army of spell-flinging robots, and her very own time machine.

The universe will know her wrath!

A quick note before the synopsis: This story is not written in the style of a novel. I've seen the style being compared to a DnD campaign so if that's not something you would enjoy reading, you probably will not like this story.... more>>

EDIT: As of Chapter 639, I changed the writing style. It's much closer to standard writing now. I'm not sure if I will go back and update all previous chapters to the new style. It would take a lot of time and I would rather spend that time writing new ones instead of changing old ones.

Also, I write this story for my friends to read and Scribble Hub is a convenient place for them to read it instead of me sending them the individual documents for every chapter. So, you can read it, or don't. It doesn't matter to me. As long as I enjoy writing it and my friends enjoy reading it, that's all that matters to me. This story was never originally going to see any kind of public release. Now for the synopsis.

BTS 1 Synopsis:
118 years ago, Earth was ravaged by a major war between the forces of Heaven and Hell. Now, a young man named Zeth, who has just discovered he has magic abilities, finds himself faced with helping Heaven to prevent another invasion of Earth by Hell. Zeth and his new friends must journey through the world, different dimensions, and the divine realm to put a stop to the threats that face the world and perhaps answer the biggest question of all, what caused the conflict between Heaven and Hell in the first place? This is a journey that must go beyond the stars!

BTS 2 synopsis down at the bottom.

***

Beyond The Stars is a story inspired by battle shonen mangas (as well as my enjoyment of romance) but is darker than shonen stories usually are. I began writing it in November 2014 and the story is still ongoing to this day. The story is fully planned out so nothing I add is done as I go. The only exception is the moment to moment parts of fights. Consider this story a "word manga" as I write this story like it would be an actual manga.

Also I love the use of foreshadowing so always keep an eye out for anything that looks like foreshadowing.

I do make use of Scribble Hub's Glossary feature where I will put the list of arcs (and chapter numbers in those arcs) as well as a list of characters and their descriptions. Currently, it only has characters that have been drawn but soon I'm going to take some time to add all of the characters.

BTS 2 Synopsis: (Chapter 575 and onward)

Following the defeat of the Dark Goddess and peace returning to Earth, the threat of the abyss begins to loom. Zeth, Sasha, and the other heroes must travel to other planets in the galaxy as well as the Divine World itself to find a way to stop it, or else lose the entire galaxy to the abyss. <<less

Embark on an adventure with Izuna as she flees the collapse of her nation and becomes an adventurer. However, beneath her seemingly ordinary life, lies a long, tragic tale; long forgotten. As Izuna struggles with the challenges of her newfound life, long-buried memories resurface, revealing a past entangled in the creation of gods. This narrative unfolds against a backdrop of forgotten experiments, and immortal beings.

Joining her are her twin sister, Historia, and the companions she meets along the way; together, they uncover the tragic depths of this past, unraveling the mysteries that bind the very fabric of their reality. However, every action has a cost and as the lines between mortals and gods blur, the very fate of their world hangs in the balance.

Will the sisters discover the true extent of their past? Or will fate's echoes reshape their destiny? Their journey, fraught with chaos, will lead them to a world that may never forget the origins of the ones they call gods.

Get ready for a captivating odyssey through realms of magic, gods, and self-discovery—a tale where every revelation uncovers new questions and where the boundaries of reality are as fragile as the twins' memories.

Author's Note: This story explores themes and consequences of immortality, human experimentation, amnesia, social anxiety, isolation, and a journey of self-discovery. As a side note, the main genre focus is sci-fi/fantasy/adventure. As a warning label: This story has both dark and bright fantasy themes. <<less

Well... every story has the starting part, the middle part and the final part, the SCP part is in the middle, but we will start from... the start actually, no silly shenanigans this time :/
The protagonist will indeed go to the SCP universe and will do some things there, but most likely will be a short stay
_____________________________
Our protagonist find themselves in a unknown place in the middle of a forest, going with small steps each time, watch as they go on a adventure on new "places" and meet different people, growing both as a person and in power while doing so. Will they become somebody important in the grand scheme of things or just somebody powerful, or maybe neither and live in a secluded farm somewhere, you can find out as the story unfolds itself before you, but the only grantee is that they will become something else as the story progress.
____________________________
Useful information:
-This is a quite fast paced story
-Except for the things i created in this story, i do not own anything, like the character from other "places" for example.

Worlds visited:
First: is a Original universe and will take some time to leave it(some in universe time)
Second: Decided but won't reveal as it would be a spoiler

I will be not only be accepting suggestions for this story such as places and events to bring attention to, i will also do the same for characters you suggest to bring attention in the story, so your tips and suggestions will be very appreciated.

I will post irregularly a chapter a week if i am able to, but each chapter will have at least 1k words, and between 1,5k and 2k words if possible, i am both new and bad at this kind of stuff so if you have a good suggestion or you spot a error you're welcome to show to me in the comments :) <<less
